Rootless the Podcast

Mental health has always been a stigmatized topic amongst our communities. It's time to unlearn what we learned and normalize conversations about it. We've all been through it, seek help if you need it! Join Hanaa and Zohaib as they share their experiences and how it impacted them.

2020's last episode. We know this year has been tough on a lot of people and there's no playing that down, but in this episode Hanaa and Zohaib decide to look at the positives that may have come out of all the panic and struggle. Join us as we say goodbye to a year that will definitely be going down in the history books!

We highly recommend not listening to this episode if you're hungry, unless you have some snacks ready to munch on. Hanaa and Zohaib talk about the best dishes they've had, how fast food is so different in each region, how food ties into all our cultures, and many other aspects of greatest gift of life.

Join us as we explore our exposure to music from various countries, whether we lived there or not. When your taste ranges from Reggaeton to South Asian rock, it's hard not to appreciate the different approaches to music and, of course, how you can dance to it!

On this week's episode, Hanaa and Zohaib decide to explore the concept of patriotism and how third cultured kids have been judged for either having too much of it...or none at all. Why is patriotism even necessary? Is patriotism exclusive to just one part of your background or can you express your love for every part? Tune in to hear about this struggle!

Rootless explores the minds of two twenty-something-year-old third-culture kids as they navigate adulthood. Join Hanaa and Zohaib, two childhood friends, every week for a few laughs, some personal stories, and several raw conversations about everything under the sun. Raised in the Middle East, originally South Asian, and adulting in North America, their perspectives are fresh, foreign, and diverse. Special guests will be featured!
